Why Skechers Fit Differently from Other Footwear Brands
Skechers has built a global following for its ultra-comfortable, everyday footwear—especially its memory foam insoles and slip-on trainers. But while comfort is their signature, Skechers sizing can feel inconsistent depending on the style, material, and region.
If you’ve ever wondered whether to size up or down in Skechers, or if your “UK 6” feels different in every pair—you’re not alone. Tellar.co.uk helps you find the exact right size based on your foot measurements, current shoe size in any brand, or previous Skechers purchases.
Skechers Sizing Issues: Common Questions We See
Q: Do Skechers run small or large?
A: Many Skechers shoes—particularly memory foam trainers and slip-ons—tend to run slightly large. However, their structured styles like leather lace-ups or walking boots can run true to size or small. Use Tellar.co.uk to check how each specific style compares.
Q: What’s the difference between Skechers UK and US sizing?
A: Skechers uses both US and UK sizing across platforms. A US 8 is not the same as a UK 8. If you're buying from an international retailer, it's crucial to double-check the conversion—Tellar handles this automatically.

What Skechers Styles Are Worth Buying?
1. Skechers Go Walk Series
Highly rated for daily comfort and travel. These run slightly roomy—ideal if you wear thicker socks or prefer a relaxed fit. Half sizes are available for more precision.
2. Skechers D’Lites
A throwback chunky sneaker with fashion appeal. The leather trim and tighter upper mean you may want to size up. Check your best size on Tellar.
3. Skechers Uno Trainers
These are more structured with built-in air cushioning. True to size for most users, but narrow in the toe box—especially for wide feet.
4. Skechers Arch Fit Range
Specifically engineered for plantar support and arch pain relief. Fits vary based on foot type—Tellar can help select Arch Fit styles based on your foot shape.
5. Skechers Slip-Ins (Hands-Free)
Extremely popular for quick wear. Tend to fit roomier than lace-up equivalents, so some users size down by 0.5. Confirm with Tellar to avoid returns.

Real User Feedback
“I wear a UK 6 in Clarks but my Skechers always felt too loose. Tellar showed me that I needed a UK 5.5 in the Go Walk series—and it was spot on. First time I haven’t had to return shoes!”
— Julie R., Birmingham
“My teenage son has wide feet and we never know which Skechers fit. Tellar helped us avoid the guesswork—we found out which trainers ran wide and which ones didn’t.”
— Raj, London
